Canadian Boating Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

When following fire response, how should you position your boat in relation to the wind?

So that the wind blows towards your boat

So that the wind blows the fire away from your boat

When responding to a fire, it is important to position your boat in a way that keeps the wind blowing the fire away from your boat. This helps to prevent the fire from spreading towards your boat and potentially causing harm. Options A and C, having the wind blowing towards or perpendicular to your boat, can put you in danger and make it more difficult to fight the fire. Option D, thinking that the position doesn't matter, can also be dangerous as it may expose your boat to the fire or make it harder to navigate. Therefore, option B is the best choice for the safety of yourself and your boat.
